The lots were starting at $30,000 for about an acre. My property is a 1/4 mile from there (100 yards as the crow flys) and developers have bugged me for years. I've even thrown city folk out of my hayfield. Ask them what they think they are doing? "Oh we're thinking about buying this property". Better have a real fat checkbook pal, now leave!
